The employees have already taken 22 days of strike action over concerns about possible cuts to their salaries.

Doncaster UNISON’s branch secretary Jim Board said: “Dave Prentis visiting the picket lines today is a very important moment in this dispute and gives a massive boost in confidence to the Care UK staff that are striking.”
